Harm to baby

Is it bad if I bearly drink 1liter of water a day? I'm starting to notice my skin getting dryer.  Is it also bad if I'm brakes most of the day? I feel more comfortable that way but I hear my Boobs will drag worst after breastfeeding

Yeah. That's pretty bad if your skin is noticeably getting dry. Definitely drink more. My dr said to drink at least 80oz of water a day. That's almost 3 liters. Dehydration can also cause you to contract...

You need more hydration than that. It is dangerous for you and your fetus to drink so little especially if you're noticing a difference in your skin's hydration it means you're doing damage. And your breasts do need support, try a sports bra or at least a bra without wires in it to keep irritation down.
